I’ve been driving in tour whole last year, and most of this year too. But recently when trying sport mode, I miraculously accomplished to stall the car, twice in one trip. I mean it’s probably one of the most forgiving cars to set off in. So it had me wondering. When I switch to sport mode, it takes a noticeable longer pedal travel to achieve the same engine speed, compared to tour. Even though I have pulled the NPP fuse (#51) it also sounds a lot different when I accelerate, as the engine speed/RPMs increases much more linearly. Getting through an empty roundabout or a 90 degree turn and letting the tail out just a little also requires much more effort in sport. This may have something to do with the traction control behaving differently between the modes. As you know I don’t have any facts to back this up, but it’s just an idea I had. Maybe it is different on manuals vs automatic, or maybe it’s because my car is a EU spec model. But there is definitely a noticeable difference between the tour and sport throttle mapping on my car. Or maybe this is all in my head and the mode switch button could just be a dummy button not wired to anything and I’d still feel a difference. I was thinking about this a couple of weeks ago, and thought surely that would explain what I’ve been experiencing. And then I saw this thread. |

I’ve been searching the forum and I have found several documents and pages from GM stating that the throttle progression is identical between tour and sport. I am just sure I can feel that something is different. I’ll try and take notice of it again next time I drive it.

What is the difference in holding the TC button for 8 seconds and double clicking it to put it into competition mode? Is there actually a difference?

I agree 100%
My fav setting and swing that rear end. It’s called throttle pedal control. Snap the rear end back in line.

I too have found that Sport mode is more responsive than Track mode in my ZL1 and the 2016 2SS I used to own also. With the ZL1, Tour mode gives better mileage than Sport or Track and most times I put the Z in Tour mode when driving on a trip out of town. When driving around the city, my ZL1 is in Sport mode and exhaust in Track mode. I set exhaust to Track mode in the DIC and keep it there all the time now.
